Thread: Sun June 19th - Sat June 25th

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: 22mm New Forest 2211 Silvertip Badger

Maxterpiece: 7/8" P. Hospital Le Grelot #14, 3/4 Hollow Ground, Round Point (w/Butterscotch Micarta scales)

Strop: 45/65 laps (Neil Miller linen / SRD Premium IV leather)

Überlather: Martin de Candre Savon à raser

Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)

Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer

After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue AS

After Shave Oil: Martin de Candre Copra Oil

Cologne: Martin de Candre "Eau de Lavende" EdT

Results: This shave would certainly qualify as a stupendulicious one. The Le Grelot was rescaled by Max (got it from another member in Hawaii some time ago) and couldn't be happier. She literally shaves like a dream. The MdC shave soap created the central foundation onto which this venue was made possible and enjoyable. The lather and scent were FAN-FREAKIN'-TASTIC to say the least (but this audience does not need a reminder of how great this soap really is). The MdC "Eau de Lavende" is slowly growing on me and I am reaaaally beginning to like it. My wife fell in love with it the first time whereas me, I am slow (what can I say...story of my life )...I take a little time to warm up to an idea (in this case scent). Now, off to get ready for a busy day ahead...We have family coming over (before my sister and her family go off to Costa Rica for a few weeks on vacation) to enjoy a feast my wife has been cooking up for the past few days.

Have an SENSATIONAL Saturday.
